Evaluating the results of National Nuclear R&D projects has critical importance in nuclear management aspect. This paper uses multi-attribute utility theory as a basis for obtaining a value Index to assess the results of nuclear R&D projects and applies the theory to a specific Korean case study. To structure and quantify basic values for the . evaluation, we elicited important attributes, then refined and structured them into a hierarchy. A multi-attribute index is constructed as a multi-attribute utility function, based on value judgments provided by a group of technical experts, policy makers, and decision-makers. The implications of the results are also discussed. We found that the work and results can provide valuable insights for assessment of nuclear R&D consequences.

This study suggests an attribute code system for earned value management system (EVMS). The attribute code system can be used for integrating various EYM data from construction schedule and cost. If the suggested attribute code is used in EVM, sorting and typical classifying of EVM data is possible in the computerized system. Those functions are an effective management tool for construction manager comparing with other EVM tools.

Purpose - This study is to investigate the effects of consumption values of retailers on the importance of store attributes, and to determine the influence on the consumption values of consumers who shop at complex shopping malls on the empirical and functional attributes in those malls as well as on the influence of on/off-line channels. Research design, data, and methodology - With 344 surveyed questionnaires, this study was conducted by using SPSS 22.0 to verify the reliability and validity of the measured variables. Structural equation model (SEM) was employed as a statistical method for the hypotheses test of this study. Results - The results showed that hedonic value has more influence on the importance of empirical attribute than that of functional attribute in shopping malls. In addition, practical value has more influence on functional attributes than empirical properties of shopping malls. However, these relationships showed the difference in on/off-line channels. As for off-line channels, consumers' consumption values were more influential on empirical attributes, while functional attributes were more important in on-line channels Conclusions - This study analyzed the influence on the importance of the consumption values in store attributes, and the effects of each channel with suggesting practical implications.

Purpose - The current study attempts to reveal the causal relationship and identify the interrelationships among individual value, product selection attribute, and re-purchase intention of consumers when purchasing kimchi. Research design, data, and methodology - The surveys were distributed and retrieved to kimchi consumers in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province who were over 20 years old and who had purchased kimchi before. The current study utilized the self-reporting survey as the research method. Result - First, as a result of hypothesis 1 test, both internal value and external value had a significant effect. Second, as a result of hypothesis 2 test, while internal value had a significant effect, external value did not have a significant effect. Third, as a result of hypothesis 3 test, while internal value had a significant effect, external value did not have a significant effect. Fourth, as a result of hypothesis 4 test, all quality, brand, and price had a significant effect. Fifth, as a result of hypothesis 5 test, while internal value had a significant effect, external value did not have a significant effect. Conclusion - The current study aims to establish marketing and service strategies to maximize profits and secure competitive advantage in the kimchi industry through changes in the management strategy of the Korean kimchi industry.

Rice has prevailed as a staple food in South Korea. Rice consumption has sharply shrunk nowadays. In the wake of COVID-19 Shock and the "untact" era, the instant rice market has significantly grown, and there is a possibility of solving the shrinking consumption of domestic rice. This study contributes to the development of rice consumption promotion strategies by examining the factors of purchasing instant rice based on the Hedonic Price Methodology. In particular, given the increase in online market, this study compares attribute values of product characteristics between online and offline markets. The empirical results show that calorie, brand, organic and functional products have positive effects on instant rice prices. The rate of carbohydrate, the PB and bundle attributes have negative effects on instant rice prices. The results also show that the magnitude of brand, bundle and PB attribute values are bigger in offline market while that of the number of multigrain attribute value is relatively bigger in online market. The organic attribute value is important regardless of marketing channels.

In this paper, we propose a new paradigm of weighting methods for naive Bayesian learning. We propose more fine-grained weighting methods, called value weighting method, in the context of naive Bayesian learning. While the current weighting methods assign a weight to an attribute, we assign a weight to an attribute value. We develop new methods, using Kullback-Leibler function, for both value weighting and feature weighting in the context of naive Bayesian. The performance of the proposed methods has been compared with the attribute weighting method and general naive bayesian. The proposed method shows better performance in most of the cases.

The purpose of this study were to investigate the relationships between consumer's value and sportswear's benefit sought/attribute evaluation, and to examine how sportswear's benefit sought were influenced by consumers' value and demographic variables. Subjects were 468 males and females in their teens to 30's in Seoul. Consumer's value was classified into four dimensions by using factors analysis: materialism, achievement orientation, traditionalism, and other consciousness. The value of materialism and achievement orientation had positive relations with brand orientation, fashion, appearance attraction, enterprise image, and brand advertisement of sportswear in both male and female. Achievement orientation had, in case of the male, positive relations with economics, practicality, fabrics, and quality of sportswear. In case of the female, traditionalism had positive relations with economics and practicality, and other consciousness value had positive relations with brand advertisement. Materialism was the most important in predicting brand orientation, followed by social class in both male and female. Age was the most important in predicting practicality, followed by achievement orientation in case of the male. Materialism(-) was, in case of the female, the most important in predicting practicality, followed by traditionalism, achievement orientation, and age.

The article contains an introduction of possibility of applying Multi-Attribute Utility Theory(MAUT) for priority setting of R&D projects. MAUT is compared with AHP, which is widely used recently. These two techuiques are applied to set priorities of R&D projects In a Government-funded Research Institute. Six criteria are chosen from consultation with decision makers. They are composed of 1) validity as representative projects, 2) possibility of resource mobilization, 3) spillover effect of developed technologies, 4) possibility of success, 5) scope of participation and 6) clarity of research goal. To set priorities of R&D projects, SMART(Simple MultiAttribute Rating Technique) and DVM(Difference Value Measurement) out of many MAUT methods are used to design the utility function and to determine the weights among criteria. The aggregation model is additive on the assumption the criteria are independent. AHP executes pairwise comparisons for criteria and alternatives. From the results of the case study, the results and theoretical characteristics are compared.

This research approached the negotiation problem from the seller's perspective in the make-to-order manufacturing industry in order to solve the multi-attribute automated negotiation problem. To this end, more than 'two negotiation attributes are defined and a preferred value of each negotiation alternative is calculated based on the entropy value of each attribute. And then, the best option is selected according to the utility function of each negotiator, a penalty of negotiation delay, and conviction of possibility of negotiation success. The suggested automated negotiation methods in this study can be employed for the development of advanced automated negotiation systems.
